Our new pet

It looks like we have a pet squirrel at our house. He likes to perch on our back deck and chew on pine cones. He's not entirely tame. He usually runs away and barks at us if we get too close. And I think he might be trying to hit us on the head with the pine cones he's dropping out of the trees. He's kind of fun to watch, though. If you want to help us think of a name for our new pet, let me know.
